Chronic kidney disease, also called chronic kidney failure, involves a gradual loss of kidney function. Your kidneys filter wastes and excess fluids from your blood, which are then removed in your urine. Advanced chronic kidney disease can cause dangerous levels of fluid, electrolytes and wastes to build up in your body. In the early stages of chronic kidney disease, you might have few signs or symptoms. You might not realize that you have kidney disease until the condition is advanced. Treatment for chronic kidney disease focuses on slowing the progression of kidney damage, usually by controlling the cause. But, even controlling the cause might not keep kidney damage from progressing. Chronic kidney disease can progress to end-stage kidney failure, which is fatal without artificial filtering (dialysis) or a kidney transplant Let’s watch the Live Webinar  Penyakit Buah Pinggang Apa Yang Perlu Anda Tahun (Punca, Pencegahan dan Rawatan) presented by Dr. Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Rahman, Pakar Neurologi KPJ Hospital Pakar Puteri, Mr. Hakim Zakaria, Pegawai Dietetik Pusat Pengajian Sains Kesihatan USM and Prof. Madya Dr. Mohd Mazri Yahya, Pakar Perunding Vaskular & Pakar Endovascular Hospital Pakar KPJ Johor.  Lets Watch Penyakit Buah Pinggang Apa Yang Perlu Anda Tahun (Punca, Pencegahan dan Rawatan) AZKA Live Webinar Penyakit Buah Pinggang Apa Yang Perlu Anda Tahun (Punca, Pencegahan dan Rawatan) CLICK

Islamic Social Finance through instruments such as zakat, waqf, and charity are relevant in addressing the poverty gap and helping the country’s socioeconomics. These instruments also have an important impact on improving financial resilience and social well-being through the distribution of wealth and income in society. Along with the development of digital transactions, the technology applications support the transactions carried out by individuals and organizations more quickly, transparently and efficiently, not least in zakat management. The explosion of this technological phenomenon is also felt by zakat institutions, especially in the use of Blockchain technology. This Blockchain technology can make a data transaction unbreakable and works as an access gatekeeper for the data to work automatically, especially if using Smart contract methods. The Smart Contract attached to zakat transactions can guarantee traceability, transparency and confidence in zakat transactions and subsequently is not only able to increase the amount of zakat collection at the state and national level but is also able to increase the effectiveness of distribution to zakat recipients.

Income tax is a payment imposed by the government on income received in Malaysia. Income tax is imposed on individuals and non -individuals which is enforced under the Income Tax Act 1967. The Inland Revenue Board of Malaysia (IRBM) is appointed by the government as the agency to enforce the act and collect taxes on behalf of the government. When we heard the word TAX, most of the person will feel not comfortable. In fact, those who are not from the taxpayer class will quickly run away from this hot issue.  In fact, the issue of taxes is a good topic and should be taken seriously by all individuals who are generating income, especially entrepreneurs and those who own businesses. In fact, you do not have to be afraid of TAXES because many reliefs have been given by the government to Malaysians. Zakat is one of them! What are the other tax reliefs?

Tanah Melayu telah di istiharkan merdeka pada tanggal 31 Ogos 1957. Pada 16 September 1963, Almarhum Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al- Haj yang merupakan Perdana Menteri Malaysia yang pertama telah mengisytiharkan pembentukan persekutuan Malaysia di Stadium Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur. Kini pada tahun 2021, Malaysia telah wujud selama 58 tahun di bumi bersejarah ini. Hari Malaysia begitu besar maknanya kepada seluruh rakyat Malaysia tidak kira di Semenanjung, Sabah dan Sarawak kerana ia merupakan detik paling bersejarah yang memperlihatkan penyatuan ketiga-tiga wilayah ini dibawah satu naungan. Sambutan Hari Malaysia disambut setiap tahun bagi mengingatkan kita bahawa pembentukan Malaysia tidak datang bergolek dalam sekelip mata. Sebaliknya ia adalah hasil perjuangan pemimpin dan rakyat kita terdahulu yang mahu melihat lahirnya sebuah negara yang bernama Malaysia yang merdeka dan bersatu padu dari pelbagai etnik, agama dan budaya. Namun begitu, menjadi persoalan adakah sifat patriosme telah tertanam di hati setiap rakyat terhadap sejarah pembentukan Malaysia. Dalam keadaan ini, adakah wacana dan naratif yang berunsur sejarah Malaysia telah berjaya disemai kepada rakyat sejak kecil lagi. Sejarah penubuhan negara itu perlu dihayati semua rakyat agar minda dan juga kemajuan negara berada dalam satu paksi yang sama. Webinar 58 Tahun Malaysia & Identitinya sempena Hari Malaysia ini telah di bentangkan oleh YBhg. Prof. Emeritus Dato’ Dr. Wan Hashim Wan Teh, Pensyarah Fakulti Pengajian & Pengurusan Pertahanan, Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM). Webinar dimoderatorkan oleh En Azhan Ismail, Ketua Pegawai Kewangan, Pusat Pungutan Zakat (PPZ-MAIWP).

Pada 11 Mac 2020, Pertubuhan Kesihatan Sedunia (WHO) telah mengisytiharkan Wabak Covid-19 sebagai Pandemik. Krisis global akibat penularan wabak COVID-19 ini bukan sahaja melibatkan kesan kepada pasaran ekonomi malah ia turut menyumbang kepada kesan yang besar kepada pendidikan, kesihatan, pemakanan dan kesejahteraan kanak-kanak. Sedia maklum, di Malaysia proses Pengajaran dan Pembelajaran Di Rumah (PDPR) telah mula di amalkan bagi menggantikan proses pembelajaran dan pengajaran secara konvensional. Bila sahaja kita menyebut tentang pendidikan ia bukan sahaja melibatkan pelajar malah ibu bapa, guru-guru, warga pendidikan dan rakyat secara keseluruhannya. Setelah hampir 2 tahun fenomena pandemik ini, pelbagai penstrukturan pendidikan telah dilaksanakan oleh Kementerian Pendidikan bagi memastikan pelajar-pelajar tidak tercicir dari pembelajaran. Anggaran 41 minggu atau lebih dari 200 hari pelajar-pelajar tidak ke sekolah sejak pandemik Covid 19 melanda, adakah keadaan fizikal dan mental mereka sudah bersedia untuk memulakan persekolahan yang akan dibuka semula pada 03 Oktober 2021 nanti. Apakah sektor pendidikan sudah cukup bersedia dengan prasarana, infrastruktur dan Prosedur Operasi Standard (SOP) untuk meneruskan penjajaran secara konvensional. Persoalannya, jika situasi pandemik ini terus berlanjutan bagaimana kluster pendidikan dapat dipacu dengan lebih inklusif dan lebih baik untuk tahun-tahun kehadapan agar generasi pelajar di era pandemik ini tidak merasa ketinggalan ataupun kehilangan. Webinar Covid 19: Generasi Yang Hilang ini di bentangkan oleh Dr. Anuar Ahmad, Pensyarah Pusat Kajian Pendidikan & Kesejahteraan Komuniti, Fakulti Pendidikan, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM).

Di Malaysia, urusan kutipan dan pengagihan zakat adalah tertakluk dibawah kelolaan Majlis Agama Islam Negeri (MAIN). Sedia maklum urusan pentadbiran bagi kutipan dan agihan zakat adalah merupakan kuasa negeri. Oleh yang demikian, setiap negeri mempunyai pendekatan yang tersendiri dalam memajukan institusi zakat tersebut. Pentadbiran institusi zakat yang berkesan dapat meningkatkan tahap sosio ekonomi umat islam dan merapatkan jurang antara golongan kaya dan miskin serta mampu melonjakkan potensi zakat sebagai instrumen pembangunan umat Islam. Kejayaan suatu tadbir urus itu adalah bergantung kepada keberkesanan tadbir urus itu sendiri selari dengan prinsip-prinsip akauntabiliti, ketanggungjawaban, dan ketelusan. Namun begitu, menjadi persoalan adakah institusi zakat di Malaysia ini sudah mencapai tahap keberkesanan tadbir urus yang berkesan dan sistematik dalam pengurusan zakat? Demikian dengan itu janganlah lepaskan peluang ini, marilah bersama-sama mendengarkan perkongsian Webinar Pemerkasaan Tadbir Urus Institusi Zakat yang akan di bentangkan oleh Prof. Dr. Abdul Rahim Bin Abdul Rahman, Ahli Lembaga Pengarah, PPZ-MAIWP. Webinar akan dimoderatorkan oleh En. Mohamad Noor Sahidi Johari Pengurus Kanan, Akademi Zakat (PPZ-MAIWP).
